Good afternoon. Question for the experts here. Can you float the Putah Creek? I have a small raft that I like to use in other rivers. I have not been on Putah Creek in years, but as I recall it is certainly big enough and has lots of access. Figured I would check first though in case there is local etiq...

So Bono and I finally got together so I could use the 1/2 day guide trip he so graciously donated to PCT and which I proudly plunked down some dough for. We fished last Friday afternoon from about 3:30 until dark. Before that though, we hit up a few businesses in town (Winters) about what we're trying to d...
Times are hard for small fly shops. Creative Sports is no exception. The internet is great, but without these small, privately held businesses our sport some how seems to move into an odd place. I for one, enjoy being able to actually speak to someone with real, on the water credibility when I buy fly fi...
That PC is going to be fishable early this coming week in the wake of the rain? I live about an hour away so I haven't been able to come up and look at the water yet. I'd be grateful for a local report.... Many thanks in advance!

i am always looking for people to float with for ease of shuttling and portaging etc. I have a 12’ two man pontoon with swivel seats and a solid bottom to stand up and cast from, and usually float the russian and a few other rivers not far north of the russian that are usually fishable when everything else i...
Region 3 Fisheries Biologists have asked PCT to solicit volunteers for an upcoming Side Channel survey within the inter-dam reach of Putah Creek for trout. The survey will be a shallow water (primarily riffle) wading electroshock sampling for young of the year sized fish. Captured fish will be si...
Hello, I was curious about what type of fishing is allowed at Putah Creek. I read what it said on the Putah creek website about barbless and catch and release but wasn't sure if you could use any rod or does it have to be a Fly rod. I have a friend who is learning how to fly fish but has other rods with which she i...

I went to "Putah Creek Wheelchair Trail & Restroom" and "Putah Creek Public Fishing Acces" last week to try to catch some crayfish. However, it took us like 2 hours only to get 11 of them. Does anyone know a better location to catch crayfish more easily? Thanks! Has anyone tried the Lake Berryessa b...

A local guide found a 9'8' TFO 4 wt. rod with a Loomis reel near Canyon Creek Resort on Sunday. Unfortunately both rod and reel were run over and basically destroyed. For more info contact Richard Loft 707-294-4738. Apparently the fly line survived and is still usable.

I have just moved to Minnesota and I am only beginning to fish here and do not know the area. Need help to decide which rod weight to use? I have a 3wt, 5wt and a 6wt. Which will be good as a beginner?

Hi all, Now that the flows are starting to go down for Fall (currently at 204cfs), I wanted to share my thoughts on fishing Putah and discussions on the board. I think there is a balance that we should strike regarding discussing fishing success on the Putah and ensuring that we aren't contributing to...
